Had a fellow "neighbor" call the other day and say he just had bought an Allis Chalmers tractor to sit in front of his antique shop. He said the boys that had it painted it up and fixed it up so it looked real nice. He said that they told him it ran good, but it had ran out of gas on them and they couldn't get it started. Apparently they thought it was the magneto so they ordered new points and a new coil and installed them. Still couldn't get it running. The guy said he bought it non-running and got the old parts they replaced too. He called us (we are Farmall guys) wanting to know if we could fix it for him and get it running because he would like to pull the grandkids with it. He said if not, then that was fine that he just wanted for yard art mainly.
Now.....I'm not familiar with the smaller Allis Chalmers tractors but i am sure they are alot like working on a Farmall Cub or Super A?? All I know is that it is a narrow front and has a magneto. He doesn't know what model it is except for 1940s. I'm sure we could fix it but I need a little guidance on an Allis Chalmers.
Anyone have any suggestions, step by step guide on timing, etc. ???
